That’s good news. I was worried that facebook cause campaign would get lots followers but with no real outcome.

The new localism bill has a section on petitions. I believe that if you get 5% of your local community signing it and then give it to your council they will be forced into a referendum and all 51 councilors will vote on whether it goes or not.

Could be very wrong though, this ‘Big Society’ is confusing at the best of times.

I think that basically means it needs 10,000 signatures but from people within this borough. Again, I could be very wrong.
